We know that sending your teen abroad is a big decision—and a big responsibility. At Camps International, we treat that responsibility with the highest care, ensuring every expedition is safe, structured, and fully supported.
Every Camps expedition is a life-shaping journey. From the moment students sign up to the day they return home, they’re supported at every step. These experiences go far beyond travel—they foster independence, resilience, and the confidence to thrive as global citizens.
Our award-winning expeditions ensure your teen is fully supported from the moment they sign up to the moment they return home—with new skills, lifelong friendships, and unforgettable memories.
More about Camps
Our service-learning trips combine hands-on community projects, outdoor adventure, and deep cultural immersion. Every itinerary is thoughtfully designed to create life-changing experiences that leave a lasting impact—both for your teen and host communities.
Students find themselves in real-world situations that can’t be replicated at school or at home. Stepping outside their comfort zones helps build independence, resilience, and confidence, while giving them a broader, more informed view of the world.
By working alongside local people on sustainable projects, students gain firsthand insight into global challenges, experience new cultures, practice foreign languages, and form lasting friendships. They also strengthen key life skills like leadership, communication, and teamwork, coming home with meaningful experiences that add value to college applications, job interviews, and future opportunities.
Parents often tell us their teen comes home transformed—more confident, more independent, and more aware of the world around them. These experiences help young people develop a stronger sense of purpose, appreciation, and direction in life.
Personal Development Through Real-World Experience
Safety is at the heart of everything we do. From pre-departure planning to the moment your teen returns home, we are fully committed to their wellbeing.
Unlike most student travel providers, we own or directly manage all our in-country operations. We have resident British directors overseeing each region, supported by experienced local staff and permanent regional teams who live and work on site year-round. This means we’re always close by to prevent issues before they arise and respond immediately if needed. Our 24/7 global operations centers maintain constant contact with every camp, field team, and our network of trusted local hospitals—so your teen is never without expert support.
We’re proud to uphold the highest standards of quality and safety across every part of our programs. Our systems are tried, tested, and continuously reviewed to ensure students are safe, supported, and well cared for throughout their journey.
With over two decades of experience and recognized international accreditations, we provide a level of safety and oversight that gives families real peace of mind.
Our Safety
Fundraising is a valuable part of the expedition experience and helps your teen develop important life skills such as planning, negotiation, and budgeting.
We understand that raising the full cost of a trip can feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer a strong fundraising support system to help you and your teens in-person guidance to phone support and online tools through our Traveler Gateway portal. Students get access to this support as soon as they sign up, with hundreds of ideas and resources to help make fundraising achievable for everyone.
Each year, we see thousands of fundraising success stories from students around the world, and we’ll be here to help your teen reach their goal too.
